Michelle Obama Inauguration Coat - Butterwick B5396

Have you seen the Butterwick pattern B5396 featuring the coat the First Lady wore on a certain January 2009 breezy day? Take a moment to read the blog post from Carolyn at Day of a Sewing Fanatic - She reviews both the yellow dress jacket and a tan and black coat Mrs. Obama wore (see Butterwick B5399). I remain amazed at how far-reaching the First Family has inspired different areas of life. Enjoy!
